    Show me proof of anything being supernatural, remembering extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
    I await the details.

    Ultimately I don't think there's much solid proof of the SuperNatural, I think that maybe supernatural isn't something science can tackle. at least at this point in time, there is so much science does not understand. I have guides, certain protective forces, but they only make sense to me, and I can't convince anyone else. I'd like to believe people don't lie about stuff like this, when there's nothing to gain out of lying.

    Of which you have no desire to experience for yourself

    Experience a supernatural event?? No desire?? There is no evidence for the supernatural that cannot logically be explained in a more mundane scientific way. It's that simple.
    I await details to the contrary though.

    So you fear the real experience of supernatural

    So then you would be willing to put your self in a place that the supernatural occurrence is supposed to happen , for at least a week ...?

    I doubt it

    Find the most haunted place in your area and live there for a week and have MUFON record the experience

    I live in a community of reasonably logical people.
    We don't have "haunted places"

    from my experience, going to haunted places is a bad thing, you might attach an evil spirit to yourself and it could follow you to your house.

    That is true. I think they are afraid.

    Seriously? This is the best you can come up with? Reliance on hypervigilance and anxiety, in which states the body can easily misinterpret sights, sounds, smells etc?
    Furthermore, it is wholly unfalsifiable. A negative result would be simply brushed aside with "oh, the spirits were quiet today" or "you must simply not be in tune with the spirit world!"

    I have been on numerous ghost-hunting trips at supposedly haunted places, and nothing ever happens that is not explainable by simple anxiety felt by members of the group. No scientific evidence whatsoever, and reliance on testimony of only those few that claim to have "felt" something, while ignoring the countless others that saw, felt, heard nothing.
    I await the "Oh, of course, the spirit realm chooses who it interacts with".

    it's not really a superstition if you believe in demons and evil forces, a lot of people claim they got 'haunted' after they dabbled with the occult

    Believing in demons is kind of the definition of 'crazy superstition'!

    Well, I believe that evil forces can give us all kinds of problems, and dealing with them has made my life a little better over the years, so It's not a superstition for me.

    well, it's not really something I believed in until it started to affect my life, but I'm very thankful I did something about it.
